Melody of oblivion remains in oblivion....nobody seems to know about it. And don't forget that gawd awful Mahoro-clone, Ugly and Beautiful World. That looks awesome....was that from the game?

I dunno....i may be immature but i found the adult games one hilarious. XD Even more hilarious is....that people actually buy these games ? Do they get off by those blips on the screen or do they feel entertained by the gameplay?

Wait for the new Revoltech Fraulein line. Those Reis and Asukas are good stuff. Definately sturdier stuff. They usually will stock the mangas with figure exclusives. We can hope.

I did get the feeling that GL was a sort of sequel to Diebuster. The back of Dix-neuf has a sorta face like a Ganmen. And the Ganmen look like the buster machines from the Diebuster era. Hmmmmm. And Yoko bears a strange resemblance to Nono.

But hey...that's what politicians and world leaders do. XD When people are not happy with their decisions, they just don't vote for them next election or if they're still in power after the next election, a coup d' etat follows.

I just like to play devil's advocate....not that i completely disagree with you. He kept Simon out of the loop simply because he knew Simon would be too idealistic and wouldn't approve of it. And to him and his supporters, it is a necessary evil to ensure how near they are to the apocalypse. I mean .....at least he never sent Grapals stomping on grounds above the underground colonies to control the population right? Destruction of the original mechs was just because they were tools of Lord Genome and a symbol of oppression during his rule. The Grapals were supposed to be improved versions anyway....I dun think this made Rossiu any more bad a person than someone who takes in the new to replace the old. Human bombs... another tool against Simon. His resolve is strong and he knows he can't fight Simon at equal terms.....so he has to resolve to "dirty methods" to keep Simon in check. And it worked because he knows Simon won't risk her life for his own sake and i'm sure Rossiu bet on that aspect of Simon. I wouldn't put Rossiu's intentions in the light of evil though. I'm sure he wanted to do good....just that the means to the end were harsh and possibly ill-conceived. But hey if not for Rossiu, the Gurren-Dan would probably be boozing and misusing their powers in some way or other. There will be no Arc Gurren, no Lord Genome head in a jar, no Kamina City and no Grapal Squad. Poor guy has to take all the hate despite his sincere efforts to save humanity.

It'll be released with the limited edition manga so it should be fairly easy to get for a limited time. I'm sure HLJ will stock it up when they confirm the release date etc.

I do not approve of Rossiu's actions either. But try thinking about it this way. He's thinking like the normal logical politician. He never thought of "the world will end so we should all live or die together". He basically wanted everyone to keep the peace before it degenerates into an uncontrolable hate mob. Rossiu seemed to be well prepared for the impending apocalypse and has prepared for it. His plan: an exodus with the Arc Gurren along with key personell and to abandon earth. All his plans will be for naught if the angry mob is not satiated with a scape goat, which happened to be Simon who triggered the destruction in Kamina city and also the person closest to the betrayer, Nia. He needed to regain ppl's trust and make Simon the offender and not a part of the present government. If everyone rebelled against the government, what use is the Arc Gurren? Some shady people might just plunder it or rescue themselves leaving Rossiu and everyone stranded on earth. So those were the motivations for his actions which seem logical enough.....though I can't understand why he can't just cover up the death penalty or something.

OMFG http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2007-...d-evas-new-girl WTF..... some new mono-eyed gundams ala EVA00 and what nots....omg...is Gainax going to shove more merchandise down our throats? And the new girl....previously unanimated....what does that mean? Can it be Mana from Girlfriend of Steel? Hmmmm.

So.....is it confirmed the heatshield/airbrake doesn't open in fighter mode?

Simply put.....Rossiu is in the wrong anime. His actions would probably be lauded in another anime like Death Note.....where logic, quick thinking and ruthlessness prevails. In Gurren Lagann where hot blood prevails.....Rossiu is made out to be the unbeliever and thus the bad guy.

The rossiu part is episode 18/19 i believe and its not season 2...... same season. XD I dunno....the only thing i felt that "went south" was after "the death" , Yoko doesn't play much role any more and that irks me.

About 4-5 months for a DVD release in Japan....and add another 1-2 months for fansubbers to grab it. Add another half year for US licensors to release it.

LOL! Yoko still as fanservicey as evar. Where's Rossiu? I need to know if he's the guy in ep 1.

THe reviews are kinda negative....its like nothing new and its just the 1st few episodes condensed to fit into movie format. It is said a new character will appear next movie and it will diverge alot from the anime.

You forgot to angle down the gattling guns on the hips into firing position.....if it even can be done?

Reviews of the movie by those who attended the Japanese theatrical release. http://heiseidemocracy.com/2007/09/01/movi...-are-not-alone/

http://heiseidemocracy.com/2007/08/31/figu...igure-in-color/ Looks cool. By F-face aka Masaki Apsy. The guy coming up with the new FIGMA figure line and some might remember the Rei/Asuka poseables. Supposed to be released with a future release of the manga.

GunZak or ZakDam? http://www.dannychoo.com/blog_entry/eng/1083/Gundam+Zak/

Yeap. I have it so I know. What you thought was the torso is actually just a bust to put the head on. A normal MMS figure is a box about 2 times bigger than the one u saw. The "toothpaste box" ones are addon parts.

Time for some....Viral Marketing. Slightly big picture but cool: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v681/wol...rrenlagann1.jpg

*groan* The Waffe Bunny's pretty nice but unfortunately its "addon" parts. You need to get a "naked" MMS body to go with it as it doesn't come with the basic frame. There's also a Waffe Dolphin....something like Navy SEALS kinda look.

The Sound Of Music 2040.

Yeah i sorta thought it came out too late. LOL. They already mentioned the Vic Viper like a few times and 5-6 minutes later when it flies the reference text comes up. I also thought that the pilot for Vic Viper's uniform sorta look like Dingo's from Z.O.E 2, another Konami game. I'm just waiting for a Solid Snake cameo.

Yeah....the designer shoe label. Its like the LV/Armani/Versace of shoes.
